Covers continued...
Here are some honourable mentions that couldn't make my A-Z. Some bands and artists had more than one which deserve their own posts. It's in sections with individual bands, different versions of the one song (Johnny B Goode) and the final part... when covers go bad. I decided to swap this post with the "A-Z of Covers" so it would make sense chronologically.
